eaI went for a prenatal massage and she is always fantastic. Very soothing and peaceful. She always goes out of her way to show you preventative stretches that you can do yourself at home. Her massage room has a very relaxing and clean atmosphere.
Description of Work: I received several massage gift certificates for prenatal massage from my husband for Christmas this year and was very eager to use them. My lower back was becoming very sore and tight. As soon as she started massaging my back she immediately went to the problem spot and began working it back into a comfortable position again.

I'd never had a massage before, so this was a new experience for me. Susan was very professional with a wonderfully soothing bedside manner. Her office is in the basement of her home, and the space is beautifully decorated and very relaxing. The hour went by very quickly and I felt great afterwards. Would absolutely return for another massage!
Description of Work: I purchased a 1-hour massage via the Angie's List Big Deal.

I have experienced various massage therapies for my neck and shoulder area but never craniosacral. I was interested in seeing if craniosacral massage would help and when Angie's list offered a coupon deal, I snatched it up. I called for an appointment and Susan Lynx returned my call promptly and we set up an appointment. When I arrived, Susan went over my history and explained craniosacral therapy. I also had a deep tissue/rib bruise from a recent fall and wanted that addressed also. The therapy room was cozy and warm and Susan made me feel comfortable and welcome. Susan worked on my back issue and then completed my appointment with the craniosacral therapy.Her massage techniques are excellent. I left with my back feeling much better and with an overall feeling of well-being. The craniosacral therapy was so relaxing, more so than any other massage therapy I have experienced. I will certainly be returning for additional massages.

Have only had 1 hour and a half massage with Susan, but boy was it great. As I told my wife, I have been rubbed before, but this was a professional massage. Susan knew just where to focus to deal with the headaches I have been enduring. I can't wait until my next massage!
Description of Work: I went to Sunflowers Massage for a massage because I had headaches and for relaxation. As a work-at-home dad of two-year-old twins, relaxation cannot be overstated. Susan was very accommodating in setting up my appointment. While the massages are performed in a house, it is a very professional environment. Susan took time to understand what I was looking for and to create a plan for my needs.

Susan has explained the techniques she is using, gave me choices of massage oils and background music, and periodically made sure I was comfortable with what she was doing. She has been kind, friendly, and professional at the same time. I left feeling much more relaxed and content, with an increased sense of well-being. I have used coupons twice for her services but actually look forward to paying her full price because I feel that she deserves it for her excellent service. I appreciate the fact that she has weekend appointments available, as I am generally unable to schedule during weekdays.
Description of Work: This was my second visit to Sunflowers - my first was for a traditional massage, the second for sacro-cranial (or was it cranio-sacral?). Susan has been very professional, friendly, and warm, and has been extremely considerate of my comfort. .

Excellent experience. I would not hesitate to see her again.
Description of Work: Called for a last minute appointment to address some acute back pain due to a muscle strain. Susan was able to fit me in and the treatment was very good. Her communication is excellent both in listening to understand my condition and talking me through her approach in the treatment.

Susan always puts the comfort of the client as her top priority. She creates an inviting space to relax - she even has a fireplace right next to the massage table to take the chill out on the winter days coming soon! Susan blends differnt therapy techniques - including her newest - cranial sacral therapy - for a tailor made experience. Whether you are looking for deep tissue therapy - or pure relaxation, Susan can accomodate.

Susan was awesome, very easy to talk to and willing to adjust her approach based on the feedback I gave her during the massage. When I experienced some pain, she would back off and come at it from a different angle, or in a more gentle way rather than giving up. She was very thorough and responsive, and attentive to my breathing. The massage was so effective I felt a little zonked by the end... but drank a lot of water, took a nap and felt great. I can hardly wait to schedule my next appointment! The massage room is in her basement, and it is very comfortable and clean environment with a bathroom right around the corner. She has pets, so someone with a dog or cat aversion might not be so comfortable, but I felt right at home. Even though I didn't remember that she was offering a coupon through Angie's List, she told me about it when I mentioned how I had found her, so my first massage was half off! Thank you, Susan... I'll be back!
Description of Work: I scheduled a 1-hour massage to aid in relaxation and stress management.

I was running late so we could've cut our time short, but instead Susan cut short her time in between sessions. The massage was healing, not deep tissue but what Susan sensed I needed. She gave me several exercises to relieve pain in my neck.

Massage studio is in the basement of her home. Very clean, comfortable setting. Susan asked questions about the information I provided on my intake form. She encouraged me to speak up if she did anything that was not comfortable. I've not been a regular customer of massage therapy in the past. I have liked working with Susan so well, that I've started having regular periodic massages. I really appreciate the time she takes to understand what issues I may be having with my body at each session. She listens! She has a nice balance of Eastern and Western medicine knowledge that I find both interesting and comforting. She also offers advice on stretching or exercises I can do at home to feel better. I think my improvement is due to both her massage, as well as her advice. She does NOT do any hard selling. She doesn't make unreasonable claims about what massage can do. She offers recommendations for other health/medical providers.
Description of Work: Initially went to Sunflowers Massage due to leg and hip pain, probably due to a lower back issue, aggravated by a couple of days driving. Received a massage, as well as recommendations of what I could do to relieve pain.

Susan started the massage by asking me what I needed. Then geared the massage(and the wonderful music) to meet those needs. She knows many techniques (Swedish, relaxation, Tuina, etc) and tailors them to what's going on with your body at the time. Very highly recommend this knowledgeable masseuse.

Wonderful! Susan spent a lot of time chatting prior to the massage to get to understand my needs, and to inform me about her very wide range of expertise and training. She incorporates her nursing background into the many types of healing therapies she has studied and practiced. Then she gave me a terrific full 1 hour long massage! She's very warm and friendly, as well as a talented masseue.

Susan is terrific. She really seems to understand the body, and is able to customize her treatments to an individual's needs. She was able to find pressure points and ways of moving my limbs that give me lasting relief from my lower back and neck pain. I also require quite a bit of pressure and Susan is able to provide that. She is quite inexpensive compared to some others I've tried, and yet I still feel I get more than I pay for each time. Can't recommend her enough!

The massage was excellent, however the office environment was lacking. All the equipment was there and it felt and looked just fine. The problem is the smell of cat urine, it was very strong. This is a huge problem for us. We did not ask her about it so we do not know if it is all the time or a recent accident happened. But we figured if it was an accident or something unusual, she would have said something. I would recommend the place if that kind of smell does not bother you or if the problem has been addressed. I do want to stress we don't know if this is the situation all the time since we did not ask her ourselves.

On the day they were there I did not particularly notice a smell. However, during the summer months I did notice that the office carpet began to smell (I just moved into the office during last winter and "inherited" an old carpet). I have had it cleaned since then. I would like to point out that no other customer has ever commented or inquired about an odor. I am sorry that the customers did not tell me about the smell - even though I did not notice on that day, obviously it troubled them and I am very sorry. I would be more than happy to give this customer a free hour massage to compensate for the experience of the odor. All they have to do is contact me and I will arrange a complimentary appointment.

Susan works out of her home and has a very nice private space for treatment. Her prices are very competitive and she can work with you on pressure. She is the first therapist that I have found that acutally relieves my pain for some time. She does traditional swedish/deep tissue, but also mixes in chinese type pressure work. I have been seeing her for about once a month now.

The massage was a birthday gift, and a surprise one at that. It was a very pleasant surprise. Susan uses an intake form to find out relevant information about your needs and concerns. She set me at my ease right away. She has a soothing ambiance, complete with fireplace, and a pillow to make the massage table more comfortable for women to lie on. Susan was very perceptive and intuitive. She encouraged me to tell her when I wanted a different kind of touch, but she generally could tell before I even spoke. She had lots of different approaches if the first method wasn't quite what my body needed. She also volunteered suggestions to help me reduce stress on my body, for example when sitting at a computer and working with a mouse. I felt very comfortable with Susan, and confident in the maturity, intelligence, and kindness of her approach to massage therapy.

Susan provides a wonderful, serene setting for massage. Her treatment area is a very comfortable room, with a bathroom attached. Even though I went on a very cold day, the basement massage room was at a perfect temperature. The massage itself was the most thorough and relaxing I have ever received. I really like the fact that Susan blends both Eastern and Western into her own technique.
